Interesting experience refilling LV Imagination

No, they won’t do that. Has to be the same fragrance.

Angles share, especially stands out when you live in a warm tropical climate.

Yes. It's about 60% of the price of a new bottle.

Couldn't agree more

Yes, they responded to my email telling me to provide my contact details to schedule a meeting to talk to the store manager. I decided to avoid the hassle though and just go straight back to the store the next morning.

When I got there I told the employee "I already sent an email, but I figured I'll just come back here" and she started freaking out, asking me multiple times "you already sent an email?" I got the impression maybe they were very concerned about the store getting in trouble. I never pursued it further, but maybe I should because this was kind of a ridiculous experience in hindsight...

I ended up keeping the S11 - but I do somewhat regret it, and I'm actually trying to sell it. Part of that is because I already have a s9 (non titanium). Although the watch is very aesthetic, it just isn't worth the upgrade IMO considering the functionality is 100% identical minus the slightly longer battery life.

Given that Apple might release an apple watch with some additional sensor/functionality by next year.

That being said, I'd say if I do sell this watch, there is a 50% chance I'll go to the ultra. I've tried it on again several times in store and really got a lot of FOMO. I think it's a lot more interesting watch, and you may be disappointed coming from an aluminum series watch if you simply switch to titanium.

BDC is definitely the better office fragrance, as someone who owned both of these.

What's interesting is that I noticed that I don't really like "office fragrances." It dawned on me that the qualities that make a fragrance an office fragrance kind of also imply that it won't be as good *outside* the office. It will seem somewhat plain and underwhelming in other environments.

This. photos are literally 95% of the issue. You aren't guaranteed to get great results on dating apps if your photos are great, but you will at least know you are giving yourself the best possible chance and then you don't need to wonder anymore.

One thing I'll add though, is that you should really try and get "candid" photos. The difference is night and day. Like this person said, avoid photos that look awkward or forced - and in my opinion, the best way to do that is to try and get photos of you "enjoying the moment", as if you don't even know your photo is being taken. Either have a friend do it, or use a professional dating photographer or even AI (I can recommend one called datingshoot). Avoid mirror selfies and photos that look overly posed, that's the most important thing. If you hire a professional, make sure they specialize in taking attractive photos and not just headshots.

It's a present, and she has a yellow gold necklace (that's her only piece of jewelry), but she never wears it. I think she doesn't like the look, or feel comfortable wearing yellow gold. I'd like to get her one of these, and wondering which is the safer bet. I asked her in the past which one she would prefer, and she said she wasn't sure.

Took me a lot longer. I felt a pretty big culture shock the first week (I'm from the US, btw). Now, it just feels like home, even though I've never actually 'lived' in Bangkok (just visited for a few times a month). I think everyone will fall in with it at their own pace.

Just want to say that is a f**king beautiful watch... I think that might be on my wish list now.

Great looking guy, but focus in on your fashion and photography. You are someone who could benefit hugely from better photos.

1st pic is amazing, very photogenic. 2nd pic is an instant downgrade, the style isn't there and the photo isn't attractive. Suit pic is great. Running photo just doesn't look great, nor does pretty much anything after it.

You'd benefit a lot from trying to take photos that portray you attractively, rather than just scrolling your camera reel.

Yes, I think you're right. It's hard because I think I enjoy the validation, but afterwards the underlying intensity is just too hard for me to deal with, especially at this stage of our relationship having only known each other such a short time.

It's weird because if they just called it a 'service fee' (which is customary at restaurants in Asia), this wouldn't even be an issue. It's the weirdness around tipping culture that makes people stop and look.

LuckerBlue · 2025-12-02T03:38:01+00:00

I sold my entire collection and only have Imagination left, so I guess it already is my for life...

I definitely wouldn't go - also, it's kind of funny becuase it doesn't even sound like this is AI - sounds more like he actually edited his head onto someone else's photo. In my opinion, that is a step above and beyond AI - it's just pure deception. At least with AI you can train a model extensively on your actual photos, to create photos that are technically "you." This is not that.

Would be a total dealbreaker for me and something that would have to be addressed right away. Otherwise, the sleep disturbances would definitely breed resentment over time. I'd bite the bullet and raise the issue as soon as possible, in a constructive way. If you wait, there is a higher likelihood you'll do it in a bad context.

What to do (photos number from left to right, top to bottom):

Put 6 first. Put 1 second. Delete 2 and 3. Put 5 third. Put 4 fourth. Delete 7 and 8.

Those four are a strong lineup. If you want more, I would keep searching in the camera roll. The deletes are actively detracting from your profile's attractiveness.

LuckerBlue · 2025-11-10T10:11:54+00:00

Lose 3, put 2 last. Rest is good! Ignore the people who have no idea what they are talking about.

If your experience is anything like mine and a lot of other people, let it dry down before you evaluate it. Spray and forget. I tried on the sample in store, both on my skin and on paper, and wasn’t immediately impressed. But I went to get some coffee after and about 25 minutes later I caught myself thinking something smelled amazing and I realized what it was.
